i'm now 2 weeks away from viability. YY are moving around a lot more. it's comforting to feel them. as long as i feel them a couple times a day, i feel like i'm not at risk of losing them. i am craving cheese, chips and salsa, and white meat chicken salad like crazy. my tailbone feels like someone kicked it in, and my crotch feels like it's getting split into two. today i had to sit down in church becos i got lightheaded.
late last week i was getting ready for my bath, and happened to catch a glimpse of me in the mirror. holy shit, is my belly huge! i'm 22 weeks now, and i'm as big as i was at the boy's baby shower, which i think was 32 or 34 weeks. dear Lord, what am i going to look like when i actually get to 32 weeks?!! i also noticed that my legs have gotten bigger, and this morning my arms looked huge in my dress. this is the sad result of not being able to do power laps in the pool! i'm trying so hard to not let it get me down and let go of the vanity, but it's really really hard, especially since it took so long to work my way into the smaller jeans. i told mom that as soon as my exercise restriction is up after the babies are born, i am getting another swim pass and swimming a couple days a week, and wearing double pairs of spanx.
yesterday mom took me out to lunch at olive garden and to get a crib at tRu. in addition to that, we got a packNplay, 2 boppies, 2 boxes of bottles, a glow worm, a glow seahorse, and a musical crib "aquarium". i offered to pay for some of the stuff but she refused. my mom and dad are so good to us.
mom's day was good, but quiet. spent lunch with mom and dad, came home and watched whatever martha while the boys were upstairs watching star wars. i had the odd thought that had we not lost ani, she'd be 5 months now. but i think being pregnant has definitely softened to blow of my loss last year. i can't believe it's almost a year already. some days it feels like it was just yesterday, yet other days it feels like it was an eternity ago.
